My family loves this game. Two adults, a 14 year old, and an 8 year old. This game is great. What sets this apart from other meeple games is that you have different avenues to victory. Gaining points in so many different ways. This game is about being casual and most often, changing your strategy as the game progresses.
My only complaint is that it is 4 players only. Great for at home play, but, in public places (game stores) it limits who can play. Not a big draw back, but, with the name Five Tribes, well, you thought at least 5 players.
